For our purposes, a high-risk team is two or more people working together in an environment where there is significant risk of injury or death to themselves or to others as a result of their performance. Professionals in fields such as aviation, military, law enforcement and firefighting risk their own personal safety at work every day, making these excellent examples of high-risk professions.
